The level of giddiness I see from some of you about the potential Israeli attack on Gaza is truly sickening.

What an awful situation, no matter what has happened in the past, what is about to happen is death will rain down in thousands of people, many if them not armed combatants. Instability will come to a region that will have spillover effects. I don’t even know what a reasonable way forward is anymore, I can’t blame Israel for the response they are having. But it won’t result in peace in the region by itself.

I can’t help but think the happiest guy in the world today is Putin. This will distract the world, he’s a winner here….

You have been on the wrong side of the argument for years, people have explained the reality of Gaza and you simply don’t care for the truth.

I am sick of the apologists, especially those sharing misinformation.

Gaza is the specific area that Israel withdrew all jews from and gave complete independence to Palestinians. You know what Palestinians did with that opportunity? They have continually launched rockets and attacked Israel and abused their own people, for nearly two decades.

You know what else they can do? Educate their people and prove to the world that they desire peaceful coexistence. Gaza did the complete opposite, israel has warned the world for years, and instead of nations putting pressure on Gaza, they blamed Israel, that disgusting support for Hamas led to where we are today.

Shame on you for being part of the problem.

Odd since all of the UK, US, and Canadian governments have designated them as such.

Mind you, China, Russia, Syria, Egypt and Iran have not.

Hard to figure which way to go with that.

I don’t get why the concern over the terrorist label. We see with our eyes, the label adds nothing. You fata a dead body, you could call it crackerjax for all I care, I saw what I saw.

We get it, you hate Israel and made it clear. You avoided any debate and when you did post, it was pure misinformation. But call me that?

Your post was your way to point a finger at those who want peace in the region. You clearly don’t.

The source of many of the problems around the world and the results are playing out exactly as planned.

I think for me it is because some countries were giving money to Hamas, so they misinform by calling them more respectful names. That money has armed Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, etc.

You don’t speak for a “we.” Q has said nothing of the sort, meanwhile a poster in this thread has actually said they hate Palestinians and wished that other posters here were victims of the terrorist attack, which is sick.

Claiming that people hate Jews/Israel for no reason is absurd and childish enough as it is, but doubling down and suggesting people actually want violence is ridiculous.

Here is the relevant part of the email....sorry this is just weird to me when theoretically those that allow you to function as a "non biased" news agency, have declared and stated the group you are talking about in indeed a terrorism group.

Who is making this decision?

Zionist are hilarious.

Why would I or any palestinian love Israel? "We're going to colonize your land, displace your people and damn it you're going to enjoy the process!"

Some of the worst main character syndrome around.

The Arab world could not wait to celebrate the mass killings yesterday, but there will be the same social media victimhood posts as soon as Israel begins to eradicate these terrorists in the coming days. At least it seems the world is waking up to the pure evil that controls Gaza. And they wonder why Israel can’t negotiate with these people

Imagine if the Arab world and the Palestinians collectively decided to end their jihadist quest to destroy Israel and work towards peace. This could have been over 30 years ago but at every turn the Palestinians and their leadership fail to see the reality of the situation. What will happen in the coming weeks is not something anyone is giddy about but it is the direct result of decades of Palestinian refusal to reform their society and come to terms with reality. The lack of accountability is truly astonishing.

I have asked online countless times, with all of the hatred towards Israel, there must be really good video evidence of the atrocities, just like what Hamas provided yesterday. But that footage never arrives on Israeli atrocities, instead there is a heavy onslaught of manufactured outrage videos against Israel that are clearly propaganda and heavily edited or narrated. Imagine the same being produced against any other marginalized group.

Years later, still no videos…

I mean the Palestinians elected a death cult who hides among them and invites counter strikes and seems to like killing Jews and Palestinians equally.

Its so obvious that the end game of this strike isn't the Liberation of Israel from the Jews, but to invite Israel into a devestating strike where thousands of Palestinians are killed.

I sometimes think that Israel should offer massive 7 figure bounties for Palestinians that bring in the broken and bleeding bodies of Hamas leadership. Of course those Leaders don't live there, they're off living in mansions in other countries.

But that isn’t what happened as has been explained numerous times in this thread.

Israeli arabs have better quality of life and freedoms than they would under Palestinian rule. They also have the same quality of life and freedoms as Israeli Jews.

The nation wasn’t colonized either, stop with the misinformation. Multiple nations were created in the area…any guess which one you hate?

West Bank and Gaza different story. Israel was correct all along, a strong military presence is required to keep Gaza, West Bank and Hezbollah from militarizing, the palestinians seem to support the attacks. Yesterday proved it once again and you still point fingers while enjoying the same rights and freedoms that Palestinians don't have when governed by their own people.

You are very clewr with your hate, never offer anything to support coexistence, just Israel bad, Hamas or whomever is good.
